Police are investigating a pair of airsoft pellet gun attacks against random people in Nanaimo, B.C., that left one person injured. RCMP say both attacks happened in downtown Nanaimo on Thursday night, when pellets were fired at crowds from passing vehicles. RCMP say one person was hit in the face and received medical treatment. The silver sedan was last seen turning onto Nicol Street, according to police. Gary O' Brien with Nanaimo RCMP says it's unclear if the same group was responsible for both attacks, since they involved different vehicles.
